Raising this dead article as Microsoft now delivers extended support pricing details for those who choose not to migrate to the newer version of Windows. The one they were told they'd not ever have to migrate to

And really, it would have worked. Too bad the suits and marketing got bored

I must be in the minority that actually prefers 11 to 10

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago (4 children)

My PC is 10, my laptop for work is now 11. It's the same. I guess I'm just not a power user but it operates exactly the same for me. I wouldn't update from 10, but I wouldn't not buy 11.

I honestly don't care between 11 and 10, since switching there hasn't been an impactful difference for me.

I will however revel in the memery that Microsoft has brought upon itself.

I would use Linux but my graphics card only has nouveau drivers in Linux and that's a lot worse than Nvidia drivers in Windows 10. Same for some older ATI/AMD cards that still pack a punch in Windows with the official drivers but aren't supported in Linux in official drivers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Out of curiosity, what GPU do you have that is not decently supported? Both the latest AMD and NVidia stuff is, at least for the general public stuff.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I will have a look and get back to you.

I must admit however that I have had a change of mind after my comment and that it may have been a failure on my end. I think I may have overlooked an option for at least one of my cards, and I have since also found a guide that uses a PPA in Ubuntu.

Also besides this I have some really old (pci-express) graphics cards in active use because they are better than onboard and the pc's are still fast enough. But it would be nice to get those working with official drivers (even if older) so that some simpler games like FlatOut 1 & 2 can still be played on them.

i moved pirated ltsc. my free w10 licence burned but its ok :D

I had to upgrade to Win 11 today ;(

Hyper-V configuration version 9.3 and above is not available on Win 10.

And yes I know about Linux, my laptop runs it. But I'm not in the mood of migrating a fuck ton of stuff to another OS. I have around 20 TB of storage on my PC and redoing everything should be a pain.

I also don't want to forget my Windows knowledge overtime.

I will absolutely disable as much bullshit as possible though. I didn't even have web search in the search bar in win 10 (because it broke the search bar, but still).

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (7 children)

Had to use win11 yesterday.

It was completely unusable fucking trash and even the ux was terrible.

If it helps, my media drives transferred straight over to Linux when I cleaned by last windows device.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I actually liked the start menu in Win 10. Very customizable and usable if you actually spend some time to set it up.

Now the start menu is barebone bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (5 children)

Even the visuals; no contrast, no style, no visual economy, no virtue of any kind.

I am mostly a Linux user (surprise, Lemmy!) but recently started a new job. Given the choice of a Windows laptop vs a Macbook Pro, I took the latter, despite my long-time distaste for Apple.

I do not, even in a work setting, even want to touch Windows 11 in any recurring capacity (yes, I did try it -- at my last role).
